I had root canal in my upper tooth 2 years back and now I have unbearable pain in that tooth
it could be due to many reasons, Treatment failure, Fracture , caries , periodontal problem etc..
you should visit a consultant asap.
probably pain due to failed root canal treatment or tooth fracture due to trauma

I have pain in other 2 teeth along with the one in which I had RCT
3 years ago
It should be investigated first with examination and Xray. kindly visit any dentist.
You can take some pain killers for now and see a dentist at the earliest; there's a possibility that another tooth in the closed vicinity of that tooth has got some problem. However, whatsoever the problem is you will need to see a dentist so that they could examine and take an X-ray to reach a final diagnosis.
Please give Complete history Either Swelling,Pain on Eating or drinking water

I think This is other tooth Causing Pain and This is called Pulpitis....Root canal treated tooth May cause swelling But not such type of Pain You must take Periapical X ray and proper clinical Examination Then it will be diagnosed In Emergency You can take only Pain killer and anti inflammatory

Did you get a crown fitted afterwards? Could have been necessary. Also, depends on the quality of the procedure done, there might be numerous reasons which cause a RCT to fail. Will need an X-ray for better evaluation.
visit your dentist and get periapical xray as there are chances of getting periapical infection incase of improper root canal treatment
Asalam O Alikum,
Please book an appointment, I will consult you InshAllah.

I have removed the tooth. Now there are 3 options.
1. Implant (expensive)
2. Bridge (not sure reliable)
3. Removable tooth (dont want that)
Is there any other option other than that ? Can I go for Option no.2 as it seems more economical than implant ?
